Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems Processor latency?

Does anyone know what the latency of the processors is?

I'm using my G68 as passthrough for an Anthem MRX1120 so that I can continue to use my DSP5500 front speakers, and I know one of the last speaker firmware updates set the latency to 8ms and so I can remove about 3ft of distance in the Anthem's speaker layout configuration to account for that. However, presumably the processor also has some latency between the 5.1 analog in and the digital outs that I should also account for - Anthem require manually distance measurements like Meridian.

I'm using Discrete, no MRC, 2.8V analog sensitivity, 87 volume, with all speakers set to 0 distance and volume offset in MConfig.

Cheers,
David.

Not sure about G68, but I heard that 818 has 3.5ms processing latency.

Thanks, I'll start with that.

I added 11' ~ 11ms for my Meridian channels, and front to back transitions are nice and smooth! The Jakku Falcon/Tie-Fighter chase in The Force Awakens sounds great, with sound moving right through the room.

Latency through DSP speakers was unified at 7.5ms.
So allowing another 3.5ms* for the processor take us up to the 11ms range.
So that sounds about right to me.

Carl
*Latency of 8x8 was confirmed by M, I've not had it confirmed for 861.
